Looking to unlock the 9mm Daemon in Warzone 2 Season 5 Reloaded? We have all the steps players must take to get their hands on the new pistol in Warzone 2's midseason update.

Call of Duty: Warzone 2 Season 5 Reloaded is now live with the return of Armored Royale and a new Resurgence playground on Al Bagra Fortress. For the first time, fans will have four maps to explore in Warzone 2 as they choose between grinding Ranked Play, completing Camo Challenges, or simply leveling up their Battle Pass.

The update also comes with three new weapons players can unlock through specific challenges, including the 9mm Daemon Pistol. Activision promises the gun is "a hell of a Secondary Weapon choice."

Here's a breakdown of how to unlock the 9mm Daemon pistol in Warzone 2 Season 5 Reloaded.

How to Unlock 9mm Daemon in Warzone 2 Season 5 Reloaded

To unlock the 9mm Daemon in Warzone 2 Season 5 Reloaded, players will need to get 15 Operator headshot kills with pistols. But first, fans must make sure they have access to Battle Pass Sector E0. Those who did not participate in the Warzone 2 Faction Showdown Event will have to have to complete Sector E2.

The quickest way to get 15 Operator headshot kills with pistols is to load into a few Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer maps. If you want to stick to Warzone 2, hop into a Resurgence match on Vondel, Ashika Island, or Al Bagra Fortress to hunt pistol kills in the close-quarter environments.

What is the 9mm Daemon in Warzone 2 Season 5 Reloaded?

The Warzone 2 Season 5 Reloaded roadmap describes the 9mm Daemon as a "modern, tactical pistol" that is "deadly from the hip and features best-in-class semi-automatic fire rate."

Activision furthers, "Whether kitted for accuracy as a sole Sidearm or done Akimbo, the 9mm Daemon is true to its name." The 9mm Daemon sounds like it could rival the X12 and rise through the ranks to be the best pistol in the game.
